AI Conversation Quality Scoring Engine Developer

Scarlett Wang

Full-time · Job · New_York

About the role

Chatbot conversations are easy to generate and hard to evaluate. BLEU scores and perplexity tell you nothing about whether the bot actually solved the user's problem, maintained a coherent persona, or gave accurate information. Our quality scoring engine evaluates every chatbot conversation across 8 dimensions — task completion, factual accuracy, tone consistency, response relevance, escalation appropriateness, and three more — producing scores that correlate with human quality judgments at 0.89 Spearman rho. You'll own the scoring engine: designing new quality dimensions as our clients' needs evolve, calibrating scorers against human judgment panels, building the real-time scoring pipeline that evaluates conversations as they happen, and creating the analytics layer that surfaces quality trends to product teams. Every client chatbot generates a quality score distribution that their team monitors like a North Star metric. The conversational AI team is seven engineers. You'll be the senior engineer who defines what "quality" means and builds the system that measures it. Your scores determine whether new chatbot versions ship or get rejected — that's significant responsibility.

  • Design and calibrate multi-dimensional conversation quality scoring
  • Build real-time scoring pipeline evaluating conversations as they occur
  • Maintain 0.89+ correlation between automated scores and human judgments

Requirements

  • 6+ years in NLP with conversation evaluation or dialogue quality focus
  • Experience building evaluation systems that correlate with human judgment
  • Strong PyTorch and Hugging Face skills for scorer development

  • Track record of shipping evaluation systems used in production decisions

  • Top-tier compensation plus equity
  • Comprehensive health coverage
  • $5,000 annual conference and research budget
